First Grade

Spanish

Instructor: Sandra Harrison

In grades Preschool 3 through Grade 2, students are introduced to Spanish through our FLEX (Foreign Language Exploratory) program and meet with Señora Harrison twice a week for 30 minutes of instruction.
 
The purpose of a FLEX language program is to introduce students to the foreign language and culture. The classes are taught primarily in English with some basic communication in the target language. Proficiency in not the goal of a FLEX program. Exposure, excitement and enrichment are the intentions of a FLEX program.   

First grade students learn numbers, colors, greetings, days of the week and months of the year. First grade students will apply learned vocabulary and phrases related to self, family and school life through culturally authentic songs, stories and traditional games. They also learn vocabulary and terms that are related to their social studies unit called “Houses and Homes”.
